Piggy Black Gold




Necklace
Metal / black + gold
Bought on business trip to JP
The delicateness of the chain and piggy balances out the gaudiness of the gold and crystals perfectly. So cute! And....... it's good to be back!!!

Eth-pig




Toy
Blue dye fabric / navy
From home
This to me, is just such a different and special depiction of the usual cute pig. I don't know if it is, but it just looks like one of those handmade, vintage toys.

Smokey



Toy
Unknown with plastic cover / peach
Taxi driver's dashboard
This poor piggy still looks cute regardless of being stuck in the tight, non breathable plastic that is stained by the nasty cigarette smoke.
